I dot understand how Moseley still hasn’t figured out that one of Franz or Paolo need to be on the floor for all 48 minutes.

Not even in the last playoffs, when we were the only ones playing a 10 man rotation.

Much much much needed win. Let me repeat, MUCH.

Oh hey, we still have a game tonight. I’ll be there, and if I see Mr. Wait-man,  I’ll let him know what I think

I feel good about tonight. I think the team was in their heads with the losing streak. I think we have a chance. Need Paolo to keep improving and I think he will continue to get the rust off and get closer to the elite way he started the season.

Hard to beat the Nuggets with Jokic and Porter hitting shots the way they have been. We’re still in it, shooting is still a problem, hope we can pull it off

[Jay Magic 1,322]

There should be a rule where east teams do not play back to back in Denver 

[MagicOne 137]

We can win this thing! We're only shooting 40 percent but that's ok. Good shooting is not important and doesn't really matter. What matters is that we are still in this basketball game.

“Good shooting doesn’t matter” I think that is on a banner in Weltmans office.

Mose deserves COTY and Parker/Weltman deserve executives of the year. No one is doing more with less proven players. We're still 4th in the East without our two best players. 

With that being said, it probably goes to Kenny Atkinson. People had real questions about the Cavs and their future and those are really quiet as they sit 29-4 with a new head coach. Really unfortunate as I think Mose is doing an unbelievable job this season. 

I'd like to point out one month ago the sentiments of this board were the above statement. We had one bad month. Let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater that we didn't get something completed at the trade deadline and recently bias calls for the head of both Mose and Parker.

Let's see how this month goes. If we end this badly, we certainly will be having a small reset this off season.

I wouldn’t include everyone in that group. There have been several fans who have voiced their displeasure with the lack of creativity by this FO dating back to last year and beyond. It’s always let’s wait and see how it goes before we do anything meanwhile the entire NBA is making moves to get better. Sick and tired of the same nonsense every year they need to be held accountable simple as that. We’ve see enough to know this roster isn’t enough and yet so many fans are ok with the mediocrity.
